Chapter 63: The Battle of Minas Tirith (6)
World of the Ring, Middle-earth, Gangze, Minas Tirith.
The offensive and defensive battle between the orcs and humans was still going on, and it was already about five o'clock in the afternoon, and it had been seven or eight hours since the battle began. And because the siege weapons have been destroyed by the Kunming at the beginning of the battle, so now after the shield is broken, the progress of the siege is very unsatisfactory, after all, there is no other siege weapons to assist, only relying on the wooden ladder to climb the city wall with bare hands, it will not work at all. Those ladders, when put into use, were also quickly destroyed. Now both sides are only shooting arrows at each other about 500 meters apart, and the humans standing on the city wall are not only condescending, but also the protection of the city wall, which has completely taken the advantage, and the orcs have also contributed a lot of arrows to the human side.
Since the siege of the city, the orcs have lost more than 150,000 troops, while on the human side, the number of casualties is about 2,000, and most of this number are wounded by arrows, but there is no danger to life, and the number of deaths is about 100. Most of these poor creatures were killed by orcs who climbed from the siege ladder to the city wall, or were shot by arrows, or fell from the city wall to the outside of the city.
At the city gate, a large number of orc troops have also gathered, and they are now holding a thick siege log, which is constantly hitting the city gate. However, for the thick gate of Minas Tirith, and there are also a large number of enchantments and magic arrays on it, this siege wood can't do anything about the city gate.
And these orcs are constantly being killed by arrows from the city walls while doing useless work.
"What are you doing, useless things, why haven't the gates been breached yet?" The orc leader yelled at his men.
The orc next to him said aggrievedly: "The city gate is too strong to be broken." ”
"With Grande, smash this damn gate for me." The orc leader said with a smirk.
With the order of the half-orc leader, a huge siege vehicle was slowly pushed out in the camp in the rear, and a huge siege ram was fixed on the siege vehicle, and the single battering ram was one-third the size of the city gate, and there were many runes engraved on it, it seems that the power of this siege vehicle is very huge, maybe the city gate will really be broken by it, if that is the case, the situation will be reversed, you must know that it is only the first day, although the army of the half-orcs has been wiped out more than 150,000, but the number of troops, orcs still have a very big advantage. It's okay to defend with the city walls, but if the city gate is breached, then in a street battle, the outnumbered orcs will have a greater advantage.
However, it is obviously not so easy to destroy this siege vehicle, all the parts of this siege vehicle are made of a metal called magic iron, a specialty of Mordor, and the hardness of this magic iron is comparable to that of mythril, and the magic guide performance is still above Mithril, looking at the streamer engraved with flowing runes, you can know how much effort Mordor has put into it.
And if there is any disadvantage of this magic iron, it is that it is heavy, and with the same volume, this magic iron weighs fifty times that of ordinary steel. And this huge siege vehicle, but dragging it is a huge project.
The front of the siege vehicle was dragged by three demonic beasts, and there were one hundred and fifty trolls distributed on the side of the siege vehicle to push it, so that it could move at a speed of about five kilometers per hour.
When this siege vehicle first appeared, Li Nan also deliberately asked Veneto to give it a salvo of main guns, but this wave of main artillery salvos that blessed the legion's attack failed to leave a trace on the siege vehicle. Well, after seeing the results, Li Nan has given up destroying this big guy. But fortunately, this siege vehicle itself does not have power, it is to rely on others to pull or push forward, since I can't take this car, then I just kill the coachman, without the monster pulling the cart and the trolls of the cart, I see how your broken car moves.
Dozens of planes were surrounding the siege vehicle at this time, firing cannons from time to time to attack the monsters and trolls below. However, Mordor's troops also knew their weaknesses, so they equipped the siege vehicles with a large number of half-orcs with bows and arrows as guards, and at the same time, there were a large number of leader-level half-orcs and strong orcs who could mobilize the energy of the legion to protect those coachmen, so all the cannon attacks of the planes were blocked by the legion's defenses. After that, a large number of orc soldiers shot arrows at the planes in the sky, and these arrows blessed with the energy of the Legion could pose a deadly threat to these planes, so in desperation, Essex and Lexington could only control the planes to increase their altitude to avoid being shot down by the dense arrows.
At the same time, Li Nan was more concerned about another battlefield, that is, the battle between the two fifth-order powerhouses in the sky was still ongoing, and the battle had been going on for nearly thirty minutes at this time. Thirty minutes, or 1,800 seconds, would require 45 million units of nanomatter for 30 minutes, based on Odin's consumption of 25,000 units of nanomatter per second.
Well, there is still some time before thirty minutes, but judging by the current situation, thirty minutes may not necessarily be able to end the battle. During this period of time, the two sides kept fighting with various high-consumption energy attacks, and all kinds of high-energy compressed lightning and sword qi kept colliding, and in order not to affect the below, the battle between the two controlled the direction of energy output, but the atmosphere where the two were located had been opened up into a huge hole. But fortunately, this planet is obviously much stronger than the earth, otherwise even if the two of them stay, the entire planet will be torn apart. You must know that on Earth in the Marvel world, Sukhbaatar is just an ordinary punch, leaving a huge crack in the Atlantic Ocean, and it will take years to completely heal. It's just a hole in the atmosphere, and the world is correcting it, and of course it's powerless for both sides of the battle here.
And after more than 20 minutes of confrontation, the power of the ring spirit has obviously been consumed a little more, and Odin, who only consumes resources, is still in his heyday, so Odin has begun to gain the upper hand at this time.
Another flashy lightning shot towards the ring spirit, in fact, this kind of pure energy attack, it is still very easy to change the shape of the attack to create a variety of high-quality light and shadow effects, of course, Odin's unmodified attack method is the most economical, and that power is stronger than any good-looking attack. And because of the long-term confrontation, the spirit of the ring has been unable to keep up with the energy, so it can no longer squander the sword qi as before at this time, and can only wait for the lightning to get close to it, and use the sword to disperse the lightning. Of course, in this way, every time the long sword and lightning collide, it will cause a paralyzing effect on the body of the ring spirit. For fifth-order powerhouses, the resistance to attributes is already very strong, and the side effects of ordinary energy attacks are basically immune to them.
But Odin's attack is to convert the energy into divine power through Gangenir, and then make an attack, and this kind of divine power attack is not immune even to the fifth-order powerhouse. Therefore, now both the Ring Spirit and its mount, the Wyvern, have a paralyzing effect under the influence of lightning, and their movements are no longer as flexible as they were at the beginning. Even when resisting Odin's attack, there was even a gap in the gap.
And Odin took advantage of this flaw in the ringspirit and controlled the cod to come to the ringling, and then the huge cod opened its mouth and bit the ringspirit in a stiff state. Although the stiffness was immediately lifted, the cod's bloody maw had already covered the ringwraith.
At the moment of crisis, the Ring Spirit controlled the wyvern to make a high-level horizontal movement, and instantly got out of the cod's attack range, but even so, it was a step too late. The cod still took away its entire right arm and shoulder, and the cod's saliva left on the wound began to corrode the Ringwraith's body.
The Ring Spirit, which lost its right arm, also lost its weapon, and that right arm could not be regenerated in a short period of time. As a super-speed regeneration of the Rotten Street, it was actually a very useful ability before the fourth-order intermediate level, but after the fourth-order intermediate or advanced level, all kinds of psychic light and domain abilities can develop various abilities that limit the resilience. After all, after the fourth order, even if there is no rapid recovery means such as super-speed regeneration, and with the recovery power of the body itself, the recovery speed is also very terrifying, so how to reduce the enemy's recovery power is the focus of the battle at this time, so in high-end battles, don't think about being able to be healed quickly after being injured, unless you have a special healing profession.
After the first blow was successful, Odin began to condense lightning again, and the next moment, another lightning spear was fired at the Ringling. By the time Odin condensed the lightning, the Ringwraith had already controlled the Wyvern, keeping a distance from Odin, and at the same time, he used energy to create a black sword in his left hand. When the Ring Spirit had just finished its action, the lightning spear had already arrived in front of the ring spirit, and the ring spirit could only reluctantly raise his long sword to block the lightning spear. Although he resisted most of the divine power, some of the divine power still entered the body of the ring spirit, causing him to stiffen again.
It's going to suffer, and the ring spirit who fell into stiffness again still wants to fight for it, but Odin deliberately increased the output of divine power this time, and in no three or five seconds, the ring spirit doesn't want to get out of this rigid state. The previous attack has always been Odin's test of it, and Odin had to first find out the resistance of the lightning resistance and stiffness of the ring, and after a long time of testing, he finally came up with accurate data.
Three or five seconds of stiffness, even in the game, it is very likely to be counter-killed by the enemy, not to mention in the battle of a fifth-order powerhouse, this time is definitely enough for a fifth-order powerhouse to kill the enemy, and then he can change his clothes.
The Ringwraith was desperate, and just as it thought, Odin had come to the Ringwraith's side, and then a spear was pressed into the gap above the Ringwraith's helmet. At this distance, even if the ring spirit is still moving, it has no power to fight back.
"Goodbye, shoot him, sharpshooter." The cod was gone, and Odin stood on top of the wyvern, holding the spear and whispering.
The last Wyvern also started, because when he was just fighting, Odin had always avoided the Wyvern and attacked the Ring Spirit directly, so this Wyvern was still intact. All twenty flying dragons were in hand, but Li Nan said that he was not happy at all. First of all, as a result of being rich and capricious, he paid four hundred energy stones, and in the end, Odin spent nearly fifty million units of nano matter in his first war, which is about more than the sum of all the resources that Li Nan had spent before, and at this time Li Nan was about to cry without tears.
Of course, the only good thing is that the favorability of the Hubelian sister paper has exploded, and so many resources have been spent, in order to win the sister paper a smile. Well, Li Nan said that now he already understands the feelings of the faint monarch in ancient times. In order to make my sister happy, isn't it a matter of course for the princes of the Beacon Fire Opera or something.
After settling the battle of the ring spirit, Li Nan said to the cat lady who was eating next to him: "Fei Ni, you go down and tell Boromo that the ring spirit has been solved." ”
"Huh?" The cat lady who was eating screamed, and then immediately reacted: "Okay, I know, now go over immediately." With that, he put down his stuff and trotted to the nearby tower, which was the staircase that led to the headquarters.
For Li Nan's words, the cat lady was still taken aback, she already knew that the members of the Zhongzhou team were very strong, but she didn't expect them to be so strong. The spirit of the nine precepts is god-level, and in this world, the only one who can defeat the god is the god himself. Cat Lady was terrified now, but she couldn't resist, she didn't understand why Saruman had sent her here, and she had no contact at all except for a mission to gather intelligence. Poor Cat Lady, she hasn't had a good night's sleep since Saruman was defeated before.
The worst thing is that she is already very sure that everyone in the Zhongzhou team knows that she is a spy, and then everyone has no reaction to this, anyway, this kind of trivial matter, Li Nan said that he will deal with it, then it will be up to him. However, Li Nan himself also did not react to this matter, but as before, he completely used this cat lady as a maid unceremoniously.
And just now, the cat lady received a contact from Saruman again, asking her to continue to inquire about Minas Tirith, okay, Li Nan immediately gave her a strong message, what to tell Boromo, you just said that I will give this news to Saruman. After coming out of the command room, the cat lady once again found a corner where no one was, took out the long-lost space ring again, took out the parchment and quills from it, and then wrote the information completely.
